Autophagy in Cancer Metastasis
During cancerCancer development, tumour cells are exposed to various intrinsic and extrinsic stresses such as nutrient deficiency, lack of oxygen,... -
Traumatic brain injury heterogeneity affects cell death and autophagy
Traumatic brain injury (TBI) mechanism and severity are heterogenous clinically, resulting in a multitude of physical, cognitive, and behavioral...
